Q&A
How do you handle fence posts in Akron’s wet soil and freeze-thaw cycles?
Akron’s heavy clay soil and frequent freeze-thaw cycles can cause fence posts to rot and shift. We combat this by using pressure-treated lumber and setting posts in concrete with gravel at the base for drainage. For extra stability, we often recommend metal post anchors. This approach keeps your fence solid and level, even through harsh winters.
Can you install a new floor over my existing tile or hardwood?
In many cases, yes. We can install new flooring over existing surfaces if the subfloor is level and in good condition. We assess the height and stability first. For example, we can lay laminate or vinyl plank over tile, but we avoid stacking too many layers. We’ll give you a clear recommendation during the consultation.
Do you repair automatic gates that stop working mid-cycle?
Yes, we repair automatic gates that get stuck or stop midway. Common causes include misaligned sensors, worn gears, or electrical issues. We diagnose the problem on-site and fix or replace the faulty parts. We service all major brands and can also upgrade older systems for smoother operation.
